Champ white with those blades all polished up would look good.

Id raise it an inch or so, but thats just me. How does it ride at that height?

- Wed Mar 30, 2011 5:17 pm #247142 It actually rides great because of the extended top hats (pictures in engine bay shots)

But I am going to raise it cause I live in a trailor park which = Speed Bumps :x :thumbdown: lol
